Day 7, Wednesday, January 7, 10pm: TRSNYRC has been stunned by an injury crisis to one of its key players.
Midfield general Roy has been crocked by an ankle problem and has had to put off the start of his key 2009 resolution. Nobody quite knows what that resolution involves, not even Roy's physio, but it is believed to involve some sort of physical excercise.
"I'm still up for it but this will produce a slight delay," moaned the sofa-bound playmaker.
It has not been a good start to the year for Roy. Only a few days before, he and his family were watching "Return of the Jedi". When Darth Vader is unmasked during the film's finale, revealing the mutilated remains of his face, one of his daughters piped up: "He looks like Daddy! He looks like Daddy!"
Worse still for our star striker, Roy has himself spotted the resemblance. The truth, apparently, can sometimes hurt more than a dodgy ankle.

Its late and I have been back at work three days and the only resolution I am really clear about is giving up work. On the train to day which re-defined the word express believe me... I was thinking about how, when I was a kid the weeks and months seemed to crawl, inching along , joy filled especially summer holidays which were always hot and sunny, why was that, maybe the new Dr Who will know. Anyway years seemed very long but as you get older the time seems to fly by or at least that has been my experienc of late. I have a feeling though that 2009 might be a long year but not for the joyous reasons mentioned above. Resolutions, resolutions, the possibilities are haunting me as we count down to show and tell-which might be a more sober affair than originally envisaged. Focus I keep telling myself. I dont want to tip my hand too early committing was always difficult but I do have a short list now 1. something to do with paper 2.something to do with fish-seems to be a theme developing here and maybe a short visit to the groves of academia. Iwill probably have a new list tomorrow depending on how long the damn express takes....
